how important is ground clearance?
i see pics of all these bots that are millimeters off the ground, our bot is using 9 inch solid rubber tires and we have 4 inches clearance, but with the arm all the way extended carrying a tetra i have lots of trouble knocking it over (in fact it is quite difficult). how necessary is ground clearance when our center of gravity seems to be quite low already?
